Illustration Friday-Wise
Click image for a larger view.
This is my entry for IF's "wise" topic. All done today, Saturday, about 5 or 6 hours of steady work. Drew my lines in Freehand, collaged and painted the background and assembled and colored in Photoshop. The collage includes text about wisdom and the value of being wise. And books often contain great wisdom!
I've missed participating in IF the last few months and hope will try to be more regular.
Thanks to those of you who "followed up with me"!

um, sorry about that!! It's hard to avoid nipples when you have women models in figure painting...but now my first post is a snowman..aka more g-rated.
Now...about your illustration: I love the texture you are getting with the background, and your idea is just wonderful!
Helloooo Digital Scott! This is really great, love the text showing through the entire illo and your hands, of course are marvelous. It's great to see you back on line! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Hey Scott! I've missed your quirky takes and textures - this is a great piece. Nice to have you back. :-)
Nice work as usual. Are those all from Proverbs? I like the color and the textures. :)
have missed having your 'handy' work every friday, welcome back. this is a lovely piece.
I too am just returning from a hiatus. Great concept and v/good hands as always. Thanks for the visit :)
I am glad you decided to come back this week, nice to meet you. This is prett cool, I envy anyone who is able to do digital art. Everyone should click on this picture to read what it says. Some great words about wisdom.
Thanks for stopping by,I really appreciated your comment, it did my heart good to read your words.
I also loved seeing all your whale watching pictures on your photo blog and that eagle just blew me away! wow!
This piece is cool....very delicate work, I see. Thank you for stopping by..and very glad that you come back. I just started last month. Hope to see you often here.

Nice to see you back again! This is one of my favorites. "Foggy" is great too!!
I'm so glad you are back, I've missed your wonderful work! This is beautiful, I love all the textures and detail, and it was so nice to read your description of the process.
Hey, way to bring the true meaning of wisdom into your illustration. I'm particularly fond of the passages that talk about what's counted as foolishness in order to confound the wise.
Glad to see you are back! Love the texture in this.
Gorgeous job Scott and welcome back!
welcome back! nice work.
Hi Scott ...glad to see you posting again!!! and this is a wonderful piece...
Hugs

hey scott- welcome back! love this piece - what a great idea! thanks for your comment on mine!
Hey, you and me both... I've been out a while too (Summer was fun, what can I say...) But glad to be back and glad to see your awesome work again. Love the dolphin pieces below. Wow!
Welcome back! A big applause for this one. Great idea and such wise words shared. Thanks :)
I've missed you! glad to see ya back!
great to see your work again.
Great interpretation of the subject, really very nice!
Good job!!
Nicely done!
I've always liked how you and others like you were able to disguise the blending of textural surfaces, both manually and digitally.
Well done.

really nice piece!
Welcome back. It is good to see new work in your trade-mark style.
This is a great idea, and you have executed it so well. It is nice to know other people need to take IF breaks, too.
You came up with a really neat idea. I like how the book is in the pages of another book. Great work.
beautiful! (as always) The hands are perfect, I like the angle of the book, it makes the whole illo quite alive, without bringing too much action into it. (My English isn't that good, I hope you understand what I mean).
Nice to see something for IF again on your blog!
So creative and well done your illustration, thanks for visiting mine too!!
I'll visit your blog more, great ideas here!!
Ohhh, I love this!!
You always have great stuff.

very nice work… taking a break is a wise thing to do now and then… i took almost 2 years… welcome back to you…
Hey Scott so great to hear and see your awesome work! This is really worth the time you put into it!!! I love it :)
Glad you liked the song, my hubby used to manage the Buffalo Springfield all those years ago... you must be very young if you have not heard that song before :)
i see i wasn't the only one away for awhile. Welcome back. looks good as always
Fine work, glad to see you back. I always like your illustrations...
Fantastic! You are so wise...
I really like how the words fill up "both" pages, so to speak (all your images have such wonderful backgrounds!), and of ocurse I read them. :)
The hands are back! Love the book effect with the contrast with the background :)
I think someone could say about this illustration that you're thinking outside the box, or the book.
Very good - very creative.
